Washington DC & New York City makeup artist specializing in flawless, fresh and natural makeup styling.

Suzanne’s craft is most sought after for special occasion and bridal makeup as well as runway. Her work has appeared in Martha Stewart Weddings, The Knot, knot.com, Brides, brides.com, Modern Luxury Brides, Manhattan Bride magazine, Salt Lake / Park City Bride and Groom, Loverly.com, Engagement 101. In addition, Suzanne’s work has also been seen on the catwalk for Ines Di Santo, as lead makeup artist for the last several seasons and recently for the Pnina Tornai 2013 Bridal Show.

Suzanne began her career in the beauty industry right after college working at Clinique in global marketing for a few years and then Victoria’s Secret Beauty. While working full time, she attended the Fashion Institute of Technology and received her Masters in Marketing and Management for Cosmetics and Fragrance. She graduated with an award for academic excellence and launched her business as ma keup artist shortly thereafter. In the fall of 2012, Suzanne helped launch Calvin Klein’s newest color cosmetic line, ckOne, as their Style & Training Manager. In this role, she was responsible for the sales associate training and education for the line and she was also invited to represent the brand at special events within the northeast market.

Makeup has been Suzanne’s addiction forever… even as a child she was always fascinated with cosmetic products. It was one of her dreams to work in the beauty industry as there is nothing more rewarding than helping women enhance their natural beauty.

Suzanne would love to hear from you! For more information, please contact Suzanne @ suzannedellapellamakeup@gmail.com or 973.650.7767. Thank you!

REVIEWS

Suzanne did makeup for my wedding this July. She was such a perfectionist—every shade of makeup that she used was deliberate and appropriate. She was respectful of my request to look “natural”, but was also was happy to use bolder colors on some friends/family who wanted a more outstanding look. Suzanne was pleasant to work with, both before and during the wedding. For example, three weeks before the wedding, she helped me find someone to do hair for the wedding. During the morning of the wedding, she listened carefully to individual preferences, applied the makeup carefully, yet expeditiously, and made sure to leave everyone feeling confident. I give Suzanne my highest recommendation!

Suzanne is an amazing makeup artist! She was kind enough to travel to my home and do my makeup for a friend's wedding and was totally flexible when I was late because there was a mix up at my hair salon. I received countless compliments on how great my makeup looked that day and it lasted until I took it off at 3am! Suzanne was able to do my makeup exactly as I asked, without ever having done my makeup before. 5 stars for Suzanne!!

Suzanne is amazing! Not only did she transform me and my bridesmaids into the most beautiful girls in the world, but she made the process fun and relaxing. She even squeezed in my mother and mother-in-law last minute the morning of my wedding, even though they were not scheduled to have their makeup done. And she does it all with a smile and with a demeanor to make everyone feel relaxed and at ease. What I loved most about Suzanne was her flexibility with my bridesmaid's makeup. I knew a lot of girls were very particular about their makeup, so Suzanne suggested just doing their eyes (including fake lashes) and lips. This worked out perfectly and everyone was very happy (including me, because it saved a lot of time and money). Suzanne listens to what her clients want, rather than just doing what she likes or thinks is best. What I loved most about my wedding pictures is that I recognize myself and look like a very beautiful version of my every day self.

Suzanne is personable, professional, very organized, efficient, fun and, above all, talented. I really cannot say enough great things about her. I had the most fun "getting ready process" on the morning of my wedding and owe that to Suzanne. I highly recommend her!
